Remote Possibilities

Before remotes, we changed the channels

Right on the TV.

We got up from the couch to learn

What there was there to see.


When things got modern, we could sit

And use the new remote 

To flip from show to show, deciding

Which would get our vote.


But now, we have remotes galore 

And I can never tell

Which one to use and so I fiddle

‘Round for quite a spell.


My husband knows the magic trick

To find just what I need.

As long as he’s around

I’ll watch my program, guaranteed.


But at my son’s house, bets are off.

It really gets my goat

That to watch the U.S. Open,

Chances really are remote.
